Key message In polyploids, linkage mapping is carried out using genotyping with discrete dosage scores. Here, we use probabilistic genotypes and we validate it for the construction of polyploid linkage maps. Marker genotypes are generally called as discrete values: homozygous versus heterozygous in...
